To preface, as a huge Forever, it’s been somewhat disheartening to see all the disbandment assumptions, especially from those who don’t follow them closely. This isn’t to say those kinds of comments were made out of malicious intent, but to simply explain the purpose behind me making this post, to explain the situation. Without further ado, here’s everything we know about EVERGLOW’s future thus far, starting off with the big question:
Is Everglow disbanding?
The short answer is (very likely) no. This has been supported time and time again by the members themselves, who’ve time and time again expressed their wishes to stay as a group even since the contract announcement. Currently, the only possible wrinkle in this plan may be whether the group stays with all 6 members. EVERGLOW, as of now, has been promoting as 5 without Yiren, due to her remaining contract with Yuehua China. This isn’t to say likely she’ll re-debut with them; there’s a good chance she will, as her and the rest of Everglow are still very close. (OT6 for life!!!)
What’s next for Everglow?
If you didn’t know already, Everglow will be having a concert and possible fanmeet (?) in Japan on 8/29 (Tokyo) and 8/31 (Osaka). They will be performing as 4, without Yiren (previously discussed) and Mia (unspecified personal reasons). The purpose of this concert is to raise money to purchase the rights to their name and all the official accounts that come along with it. It’s safe to assume they already have the rights to their songs, as you can’t really hold a concert without music. Still, I’m no legal expert, so I won’t be touching on how they obtained their songs but not the full “Everglow” package. As for whether they’ll be signing with a new company soon or not, Sihyeon has shared that they’ve attended some meetings, but haven’t made any decisions yet.
What can we do for Everglow?
In my opinion, the best thing we can do for them right now is be patient and continue to support their activities. The last thing Forevers want is for them to sign a contract with a company similar to Yuehua. Everglow has been extremely present on social platforms, hosting lives and keeping us closely updated. It’s important we stay hopeful for their sakes, and don’t give up on them at what may be one of the most crucial moments in their careers.
In conclusion: EVERGLOW FOREVER LET’S GO!!!
